Senatorial Moses.

Correspondence Philadelphia Press:
Senator-elect Hiscock, of New York,
has a line nose. The outline from the
eye down is perfectly straight. not a
detection. 1t broadenS and rounds at
the end. 1t is set in such bold lines
that it gives tine impression of having
been hewn rather than moulded 1t is
the nose of essentially a good tenn
pered, self-composed man who bides
his time, but gets there all the same.
1t is the opposite of busy. fussy nose.
The Senator-elect from Virginia,
Daniel, has one of the most remark
able of the national noses. 1t is one
third the length of his face The line
from. the forehead to the end of the
nose is uninterrupted, indicating a
very high order of mind. The profile
is aristocratic. Large, delicately curved
noStrils stand out from the face
Less powerful than that of Evarts. but
not less eloquent. Prominent as the
nose Is. its tip and the base of the chin
are in line This nose should be
carefully studied.
Wade Hampton has a preiudicied and
irritable nose. 1t started on its career
a an aquiline. but half way changed
and became a NASSAU appendage of the
modified bottle type. 1t does not indi-
cate the Brain expressed by his we'll
rounded head. His bristling. military
mustache, which blends into his side
whiskers. gives him an air of lierceness.
Beck's nose seems to emit Scotch
accent. 1t Is of the Reynard type of
nose. A wary nose. Not refined, but
strong, indicating great energy. 1t is
an irrepreSSible nose.
Senator Vance has very nearly a
plump nose; short in keeping with his
round plump physiognOmy. Button on
end-certainly not nose of thinker.
Senator SAWYER has a business nose.
1t is the nose of man who deliberately
plans his line of action and carries it
out i'm strict accordance with his just
conceptions Here we have congenial,
cheerful, business nose. Senator Stan
ford's nose is a trihe melancholy, and
droops more than Sawyer's.
Senator Eyre has large nose. 1t is
the first thing YOU notice apout his
face. 1t is sharp. shrewd. direct nose.
1t might be said of it that. like his
speech, his nose is well emphasized. 1t
stands out well from his face 1t is a
nose of facts and common-sense rather
than Of fancies and fine-spun theories.
Il is 4 nose capable of judging a good
dinner There is touch of rugged
New England honesty about Eyre
nose. and it has a ''mean what-I-say''
air about it. Poets and aesthetics rarely
have noses of this kind.
Senator Allison boasts a sensible,
kindly. intelligent nose. 1t is not long,
/ but has high bridge and well-shaped
nostrils denoting taste and culture. 1t
is the right sort of nose to tie to
and follow 1t is likewise a faithful
nose.
Senator Cullen has a high-shouldered
nose. 1t is long. But not out of pro-
portion with his face. The pOssessor
/ of this nose must be described as a long
headed man His face is o. the Lincoln
/ type-sincere. calm, truthful. and with
much rugged ability.
Probably the largest nose, Evarts'
excepted. in the Senate is that of SEN
ator Salisbury. Sauls5ury's forehead
and nose would have done a good deal
for him if they had not been defeated
/ by his chin Large as his nose Is, II
does not carry the imprint of strength
/ of character, Ii is the nose OF a
/ crOchety man.
Senator Plat has the nose of phil
osopher. Ii is thou"htful nose, long
and prominent, broad at the nostrils,
I indicating kind disposition and even
+ temper.
The nose of Senator Vest, if you look
at il long enough, seems 10 issue n gen.
eral inv tatiOn Ito come on. all of YOU
/ I'll fight you. Ii is short, almost
stumpy. broad at end, not intellectual
and has very coarse nostIils. Yet Vest
/ certain directions,,i is man of ability,
! though by ne means great man.
( The junior member from Wisconsin,
/ Mr. Spooner. has one of the most pro-
nuunced noses in the senate chamber.
/ 1t has a lofty, broad bridge, and below
7 a decided arch. 1t is the nose of an
I individual thinker 1t plainly says:
Il am not to be led. but will take the
+ lead Open nostrils. expressive OF
action and enthusiasm. 1t is a modified
form Of the Roman nose. Three short.
decided. perpendicular lines above the
bridge add expression to his nasal front
ispiece.
